First time Analytics to see history?

    Hey guys, I am not asking for any illegal advice or software here. Just wish to know if installing any analytics for the very time for a site which has been on the net for years will allow me to see any past history of google traffic, is that possible with google analytics or any other software or not please?

    Nope, all traffic analysis is reliant on capturing the data as it happens.

    Alexa gives you an "idea" of what traffic has been but it's an incomplete picture and just gives a rank rather than traffic stats. If a past owner had had analytics on the site they can give you access via your google account.

    Thanks for confirming. I wanted to have some measure so when I install google Analytics for him I would have something to compare to.
